She shared a photo of a painting of a lemon and wrote: "Things have been a bit tricky for us recently and in all honesty, I haven't had time to be on here between working and the children but I randomly logged on and saw all your lovely messages gently asking if we we're all ok."
"I was touched by your kindness and so I just wanted to check in and say thank you, and that even though life has been a bit challenging, we are ok and still managing to enjoy the beginning of the holidays and there's still plenty to smile about! (I’ll pop some stuff on my stories) #whenlifegivesyoulemons #thekindnessofstrangers."
Alex shared the update with her 339,000 followers on Instagram
Alex was soon inundated with well wishes from friends. Charlotte Hawkins wrote: "Hope all OK, sending love." Izzy Judd added: "Sending love."
Fans also reached out to Alex, with one replying: "Never apologise Alex, for being a working mum/wife/having a life outside of the public eye. I came off of all social media, except IG, because too many people had expectations about when I did and didn't post! Problem solved."
